Centric 106.61070 Disc Brake Pad Set - Rear

Centric Posi-Quiet Rear Brake Pads

Centric Posi-Quiet Extended Wear Semi-Metallic Disc Brake Pad Set 106.61070 is built for rear brake service on select Ram 3500 trucks. It combines semi-metallic friction with OE-style positive molding to promote consistent density, even wear, and stable braking performance.

For 2019-2024 Ram 3500 rear brake pad replacement, this Centric Posi-Quiet set includes pad wear sensor preparation, shims, and mounting hardware. The design also uses precision-cut or shaved backing plates and mechanically attached shims to help control vibration-related noise.

Product Details

The Posi-Quiet product line focuses on controlled fitment and reduced brake noise through OE-style manufacturing methods. Centric uses a positive molding process to compress and bond the friction material to the backing plate, helping maintain uniform material density across the pad surface. A scorching process is also applied to remove impurities and pre-burnish the friction material, which can shorten the initial break-in period. This part number, 106.61070, is listed for rear applications on Ram 3500 models and cross-references Mopar 68451229AA for the same application.

What It Helps Address

• Rear brake noise caused by pad vibration
• Uneven pad wear from inconsistent friction density
• Brake pulsation concerns related to poor pad fitment
• Delayed pad break-in after installation
• Wear sensor service needs on equipped vehicles

Installation Notes

Verify rear axle configuration before ordering. This part fits 2019-2021 Ram 3500 rear with DRW and a 12.0-inch rear axle, and 2022-2024 Ram 3500 rear. Confirm caliper and sensor requirements against the vehicle before installation. Part number 106.61070 is supplied with pad shims and mounting hardware, and the pad set is prepared for wear sensor use.

Quality Assurance

Centric manufactures Posi-Quiet pads using an OE-style positive molding process and applies scorching to help remove impurities from the friction material. The friction formulation is asbestos free and built around fitment-focused details intended to support consistent braking performance and noise control.
